AntD Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Will 18 x 9.5 wheels fit ok at the front or will they stick out a bit?I've not find any setup with 9.5 at the front when I did a search on here.I am planning on getting overfenders fitted ,but not just yet.As far as I understand if the wheels stick out from the body the car could fail an MOT?

Nic Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 The offset of the wheels will also determine how wide the sit. +50 to +45 offset is probably the lowest you'd want to go with 9.5" width wheels on the front, anything lower than this is will probably extend beyond the wheel arches. If you know the widths and offsets of your current wheels, you can see how the 9.5" wheels will compare using this calculator. http://www.1010tires.com/WheelOffsetCalculator.asp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian C Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I think they will physically bolt on ok. Depends on your definition of "fit". Offset, arch rub, turning circle, bearing wear, tramlining, overtyring and so forth creep into my definition of "fit". -Ian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joe. Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I only put the same size tires on the front as the rear as they were on the rims already , and we only just fitted the rims to see what they look like on the car, there was no clearance issues at all and the car drove fine, it didn't rub anything and even on full lock Wheels are Rota Torques 18X9.5 ET30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Miller95Supra Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I've seen 18x10 FRONT / 19x12 REAR on HRE's Rims. Looks sweet from behind seeing those big meats. _____________ 1995 White Supra TT Hardtop 6-Spd (Mint Virgin Car) 2007 Red Campagna T-REX 1400R (Coming Soon) TRD Front Strut Tower Bar, TRD Oil & Rad Cap (On it when I bought it) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
